Can I play PlayStation 4 games on PlayStation 5?

Asked a year ago
Yes, the PlayStation 5 is backward compatible with most PlayStation 4 games. You can play a vast selection of PS4 games on your PS5 console. However, it's important to note that not every single PS4 title will be compatible with the PS5. To check if a specific game is playable, you can refer to the PlayStation website or use the "Game Boost" feature that enhances performance for certain PS4 games on the PS5. Additionally, PlayStation Plus members can have access to a curated collection of popular PS4 titles at no extra cost via the PlayStation Plus Collection. With PlayStation 5, you can enjoy both the latest PS5 games and some of your favorite PS4 titles.
